Even more

Awesome sketches! Also, after doing some research, I'd just like to tell you that using copyrighted characters is okay as long as it's for parody. So Ren and Stimpy can make appearances on occasion if you don't use them on any merchandise. Family Guy and Robot Chicken use copyrighted characters all the time. You can finish George Liquor's Wilderness Adventure if you want. Anyway, I'm so damn excited to see George and Jimmy again. I have all four Spumco comics, the pencil toppers, a Spumco Secret Membership Lodge card, a George Liquor squeezable man, and a Jimmy the Idiot Boy cel painting kit. The Spumco comic books and 8 archived George Liquor episodes are all I have to keep me sane. Oh, and these awesome sketches. I love the idea of a lawyer being a snake. And the fat fish is awesome! Best of all is the girl asking Jimmy for a kiss, and Jimmy staring at the camera while George whispers to him. I don't know why the camera stare is funny. It just is.

Listening to Taco Wiz's legal advice may lead to extensive poverty and debilitating civil action-related headaches. Pregnant women should not take or handle Taco Wiz. In rare instances, death has occurred while taking Taco Wiz. Consult with your IP attorney before taking Taco Wiz.

That's not 'tude, masterk; that's self-satisfaction. It may be a component of 'tude, but self-satisfaction doesn't have the in-your-face aggressiveness toward others (which, ironically enough, is actually a defensive posture) that 'tude conveys. Self-satisfaction smugly assumes other people must be jealous of its attainments/possessions but otherwise has a live-and-let-live feel to it. To mangle an old pop psychology bit, 'tude says, "I'm Okay, But You Won't Be If You Mess With Me"; George's expression says, "I'm Okay, You're Whatever You Want To Be, Doesn't Matter To Me As Long As I Got Mine."
